While exploring the Elven Quarter, you’ll notice a few camps filled with Goblin-Men.
Inside these camps, you’ll also discover orkish chests that are locked without a key nearby.
In this survival guide, we’ll show you to how to open orkish chests in the Elven Quarter in The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria.
To see these chests for yourself, be sure to watch the video below!
1. Find a Goblin-Man Camp and Clear It
You’re going to want a bit of peace and quiet to search for orkish chests in the Elven Quarter.

Once you find a camp of Goblin-Men, take them out.
They can be a bit tough if you’re fresh out of the starting area without upgraded gear.
At the very least, you should have an iron sword and a hunting bow.
Use the bow to take them down from afar.
Once they get too close, take out your sword and finish them off.
Be careful that they don’t gang up on you either.
They can quickly break your weapons and defeat you before you know it.
2. Break the Totem
After you’ve cleared the camp, you need to look for a totem towards the center of it.
It’s identifiable by the banner which hangs from it.

Break the totem.
It may take a few hits with the sword or axe, but keep at it until it breaks.
Once it breaks, it will drop a large, orkish, key.

Pick up the key and head to the chest to open it.
3. Open the Chest and Receive Your Rewards
Now that you have the key, you can return to the chest and open it.
Inside the chest, you should see a number of different rewards.

The chest tends to contain the following:
- Meat
- Iron Ingots
- Iron Ore
- Muznaken Carvings
- Gemstones
- Gold Coins
- Other Resources
The chests are a pretty decent way to stock up on iron ingots if you’re running low.
There should be a few camps in the Elven Quarter for you to raid, so take down those goblin-men and claim your riches!
